What is the primary difference between Cash Accounting and Accrual Accounting regarding Revenue Recognition?

  1. Accrual recognizes revenue when cash is received; Cash recognizes it when earned
  2. Cash recognizes revenue when the transaction is earnable; Accrual recognizes it when realized
  3. Accrual recognizes revenue when it is earned and realized; Cash recognizes it only when cash hits the bank
  4. There is no difference in revenue recognition; the only difference is in how expenses are tracked
